    It's a shame when members who joined another site have to come back here and trash talk on this site . Since several members have left , members on this site with few posts have dared to come out and make posts without fear of retaliation . This site has improved with the loss of antagonistic members . 

    Exactly. And as you can see it’s all the same old jealousy thing with the few that feel the need to come back. Like the mayor comments. You can see that I’m sure. You and John are doing just fine and one of these days one of yas are going to get sick of the few that keep coming back to stir and like Bello they will be deleted as should be. You know it must be getting pretty boring over there now that everyone know what the YouTube king( Other hunters…Of Course)  karate kid weighs, what cigar a few smoke, what beer they drink and what the great chef is cooking up today. Unbelievable on a hunting site.

    See.....It's always ALL about "You" isn't it Mayor.......  YOU are always the best. Everything that YOU have and do are the best. Better than anyone else. Right??

    Nope, no envy here on my part. Just pity for you. A sad little man, that needs to brag on a computer to feel good about himself.

    I don't need to flaunt any of my accomplishments. Those that matter most are well aware of them.

    That jealousy is all in your mind. I have friends and partners that put my 1000 acres and 200 head of animals to shame. No brag… Just fact. Talk about living on a computer thru others success. How many posts do you have?  Maybe it’s time for a life even in the late stages. Your accomplishments?  You do nothing but tell everyone that…. We Love Pic’s. Yet you throw none? Hmmmm. Sounds like you should hook up with the weightlifter YouTube poster and Bello. Oh wait, That’s right… You Are. Perfect Fit. Enjoy. Time to go put up more fence. Gotta keep them 200 inchers fat and happy.

    And this morning rant of yours Mayor, pertains to hunting/fishing???  

    There is absolutely NO competition between this forum and that. Get over it!!! Both are going their own way. I understand the sense of loyalty some have here. Heck, I've been a member here for years myself. Still some good people here too. That's the only reason I come to visit. And still try to contribute when I can. 

    Besides ranting and raving like always. I don't see you contributing much here Mayor. For years you were only disagreeable and mean spirited to anyone who didn't follow your 'gameplan'. It has ALWAYS been about YOU!! You're the best at EVERYTHING, ALWAYS!! Right?? The actual contributions you've made here over many years are minimal at best. Now as self appointed Mayor of HuntingNY, YOU have tried become the  "leader" here. People like YOU are not leaders. Only in your own mind you are. You never spoke for me and never will. I don't need any outdoor advice from YOU.

    There are others here I do respect very much. And my apologies to them for not contributing hunting/fishing in this post.

    You’re sounding a little Jelly there old man. Do a little research and you will probably find I have posted more successful hunts of top animals than most over the last like 15 years. Let alone all the vermin and waterfowl hunts. And Yourself?? Can’t say i have ever seen any.  The only competition is the few idiots that find the need to come back on this site every few weeks to bash it. Trust me, with 1000 acres of pure outdoor heaven and 200 head of the best animal a person can raise I don’t have a hell of a lot of time to live on a computer and lead anything. But keep that envy going. It looks good on ya!!

    Why would anyone be ok with a site that can't grow? That's insane.  You and everyone else that are defending the owner should be pissed off.  Members make a site successful, weather you like that member or not.  Being ok with no growth and no direction shows how out of touch with reality you are. 

    Well first of all nobody agrees with any of it. Second as you have seen with your open door policy you are not getting new members. You are pretty much living with what the other owner sucked off this site…Thank him for us. My touch of reality would tell me you are probably looking for a different word then…Weather.

    I totally disagree I think this board is the best it has ever been but I can see why you would make a post like that, seeing you have never made a worthwhile useful hunting-outdoor post here that I can remember. 

    Instead of trying to trash the place while don't post something that a NY hunter would find helpful, my message board philosophy has always been if a reader learns just one tip it was worth the time for me to write it and apparently worth the time for them to read it.

    Al

    Boy you have never made a truer statement there. So called sportsmen on a hunting/fishing site yet never Anything useful on the subjects. Ever!

    As you have seen. Those real people that stayed are ok with that if that’s the way it has to be. Much better a few real than a site full of fake. Now are you not needed over there to make sure the what 6-7 mods are keeping the monkeys in their cages?

    When the other site started, this site became tolerable again.

    Now your back causing trouble and slinging mud.

    Did you get tired of reading about what others had for dinner or what cigar they smoked that night ?

    Don't let door hit you where the lord split you.

    So,So true. Amazing how some have such a sad life that they have to live on a computer site to have companionship.

    And how many new members joined in the past yr? 

    I still visit the site because it does have some good members.  I've never bashed the site, but it has no leadership. I will bash the owner who is absent and let a great site go downhill.  

    And without the owner over there coming over here sucking members that site would have nobody. Even with open doors and invites to all. You call getting 1 maybe 2 new members a month’s successful venture. Perfect!!

    Yeah , only 108 members have been on-line on this site in the past 24 hours . Many are those that left for another site and just can't stay away . Things have been running rather smooth since many members left . 

    Exactly. And one look at the other site shows that most of the content on there comes from the ones that lived on this site. Not a whole lot missed there.

    Forums-message boards are not free, funds come from one of two places. The forum owner can pay for the costs out of pocket or various ads attached to the forum can fund costs. 

    Takes a second to delete the pop up ad on this board if not interested, no big deal as far as I am concerned.

    Al

    Exactly. And a quick look at the other hunting site shows many ad’s one has to fish thru. Although the full page every time is different for sure.

    Good timing for this topic it seems. There is at least one deer that has decided to start ransacking my sweet corn field. The corn has not even tasseled yet, and the deer knocked my fence down, and was in there busting entire stalks over.

    This morning I cleared a wide swath along the back of the cornfield with my tractor. My plan is to try repair my fence, and  to spend a couple evenings at dusk back there like I would deer hunting. If deer come out I think I will fire my shotgun into the dirt bank at the far end from where they enter. My hope is it will make them leery about hanging around and go eat elsewhere. 

    25 years and going and have never had one name the 8ft jump of our fences. Have seen a few brave ones fail over the years. Now the fawns.:..  They can go right thru the 4-6 inch squares. Crazy to see.    Sorry. Meant to quote Airedale.

    I see where you read my story wrong. I didn't think twice about getting the gun. I get what you thought, but I meant I paid it no mind. Maybe my bad choice of words. I see that. Yes rabbits produce more offspring but also have much more predators. My point is a life is a life weather a deer, bear or rabbit. We value deer more becuuse they are a part of our favorite sport deer hunting. Calm down Jr. I'm not going to get into a pissing match with you, my opinion. 

    I call that the …Bambi Effect. Just like most do not have a problem with shooting stocked birds or fish or kill a few pigs or something behind wire…Until the word Whitetail’s comes into the equation. Strange to say the least.

  13. Most people have never seen a real yote problem. Most do not have enough land to know what the habitat was before the problem became a problem. You will also never take care of a true yote problem in a state that has a season. A real yote problem can’t be fixed unless you start at the den and continues anytime every day of the year.

    Grandson got a 870-20g/ bird barrel for his birthday.Would like to buy him a rifled barrel,smooth bore buck barrel.

    Yes, I would recommend you go a little deeper and get him the rifled barrel to go with that hotrod. I have a 20 with rifled and it’s a tack driver. Would take that thing deer hunting anywhere in the country. Those 20’s are sweet.

    Back in my Coon hunting days there were many times I would be in the middle of big woods alone in the middle of the night, some of the sounds I heard would make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. One of the spookiest is a Porcupine screaming during their mating season.

    Al

    Come on Al, Can you imagine how painful that is for the lady porkie?  That would make er scream for sure…….

    How do have time to post if you got a 1000 acres to Hay!

    1000! Acres plus to farm. Not all just hay. It’s not real tough sitting in a 100 grand Deere tractor with ice cold Ac, Air ride and Auto steering. Just type in the GPS and the tractor does the rest. Technology!!!

    It is not enough that they now have a forum that is setup the way they wanted, there are some of the malcontents that also want to see this site fold.

    As far as I am concerned this site is the best it has ever been and has one of the biggest and best hunting  contents on the web with plenty of folks going through and reading it every day.

    It would be even better if the trolls would just stay away and bask in the utopia they always professed to want instead of popping in here and stirring the pot and keeping things festering.

    Al

    True That. And the biggest pot stirrer on both sites is known well. It’s needing attention that’s for sure. He should take up a hobby. I hear Hunting,Fishing, Farm/Outside work is enjoyable. He should post some if he ever takes one of them up.

    I guess our definitions of "troll" may differ?  My intention was to create awareness not just for the members here who could log on but had few to interact with anymore, but also those who couldn't log on anymore and those who couldn't even register.  That's the bigger picture.  Again, you'd prefer to leave them hanging, wanting a solution, asking for a solution over and over, and no one providing one?

    Regarding the criticisms of this site, it can't possibly be surprising those who were looking to change the outcome of this site have something to say about its situation over the last couple years.  They're understandably upset by what transpired, as they should be, as you too should be too.  Maybe you didn't buy a t-shirt and get left hanging.  Maybe the principle of all that doesn't matter to you, but it does to many of them.  Asking a question about a problem you're having on the site and not receiving any form of reply despite repeated attempts matters to many of them, as it should.

    I do understand your argument however, I do understand the optics, and I did consider those when I posted, just as I consider them when I'm posting now.  I think me posting is necessary in the best interest of the members and potential members.  Somehow you don't agree with that and are on the other side of the fence, which is OK, we're all entitled to our opinions and positions.  I just wish you'd look through the other lens and try to understand those other members and potential members, look less at me or the other site and more at them (which is why that site exists).

    That’s all well and good.  So they’re pizzed off at the site. The owners and even the members yet they continue to come back and continue to talk about the same on another site?  After how many years now??  Senseless. Not happy and left?  Then Leave and leave those that wish to stay so much the better.
